I got to wondering today what ever happened to the men who "turned me out" into prostitution back in the late 1970's. I was watching a documentary about Richard Pryor which prompted the walk down memory lane.

I had long suspected Weldon had opened the furniture store in Dallas, Texas. Weldon was looked at as the "head" of the crime family which got me involved in prostitution. I suspected it was him because there was never any social media for the place, no phone, no website, nothing that a business man should have when I found the listing for the furniture store years ago online. Remembering Weldon's refusal to be photographed, or to get near a phone, it was all the more reason why I believed that it was "the" Weldon who had left to go back to Texas that was now at the furniture store.

There was Larry, and also "B.B." as they called another brother. I'll never forget B.B. because he stole some money out of the cash register one day and then blamed me for the shortage. I trucked up to the house and told Weldon it wasn't me which struck up more of a friendship between us. Seems B.B. has passed away - http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/dallasmorningnews/obituary.aspx?pid=155815770

As has Larry. I lost track of him when he was sentenced on a heroin charge after Tina had died of an overdose. He looks different in the photo without the huge afro he had in 1979 - but I can tell by the photo that this is Larry. He had named his dog "Rerun" because of his videotaping business in the club. It appears Larry had found God and become a minister also (I've been ordained as well.) http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/dallasmorningnews/obituary.aspx?pid=139985092

About Me

I've been helping men and women leave the sex industry since 1987. Some were forced - some were not. Some thought they weren't and with time realized they were. Some thought they were and with time realized they weren't. Which is why I just focus on this - if you want help to leave any part of the sex industry for any reason - just get in touch. I run Sex Workers Anonymous, Trafficking & Prostitution Services, as well as the American Trafficking Institute. I produce www.blogtalkradio.com/stopsextrafficktalk, and the magazine "Sanity Today". I also help investigators and the authorities with sex trafficking cases, and families help their loved ones leave the streets. Currently I'm organizing www.boycottsnoop.com to demand an acknowledgment of the damage that was done to women during his 2003 tour and www.pimpalert.com to help caught pimps who are dangerous and on the streets. Our book on the history of this field "Anatomy of a Movement" is almost done.
